Exporting choices from radiobutton to GUI

Hi, does anyone how do you export a choice from a radiobutton in a button group into an excel file in Guide?

the button group has 5 radio buttons and when 1 of the button is selected then the user will click done and that choice is exported into an excel file.

Eric - you can do all of this work in the callback for your Done button. Something like the following will do

 function pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)

 % get the selected radio button
 hSelectedRadioBtn = get(handles.uipanel1,'SelectedObject');

 % write whatever you need to the Excel file
 xlswrite(....);

In the above, the uipanel1 is the assumed name/tag for the radio button group, and hSelectedRadioBtn is the handle to the selected radio button. You don't say what you want to write out to file...perhaps the text string corresponding to this button (?). If so, you can grab the option string through

 radioBtnStr = get(hSelectedRadioBtn,'String');

You can then use xlswrite to write the option string to file (assuming that you already have the file name and cell within the spreadsheet of where to write the option to).
